More about the book
Focusing on the Russian Civil War from 1917 to 1921, the narrative delves into the pivotal clash between the Bolshevik 'Reds' and the counter-revolutionary 'Whites,' particularly highlighting the White movement in Siberia and Admiral Aleksandr Kolchak's role as the 'Supreme Ruler' of Russia. The author, Jonathan Smele, utilizes a variety of sources to analyze the economic and geographical challenges faced by the Whites, concluding that their defeat stemmed from both external conditions and internal leadership failures, rather than solely from Bolshevik strength.
